Examples in Context

  1. Objective To investigate the effects of hearing loss on cerebral metabolic rate for glucose ( CMRgl ).
  2. Noninvasive quantification of regional cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen ( rCMRO_2 ) with positron emission tomography ( PET ) and tracer-kinetic principles provides a powerful tool to study normal brain function and pathophysiology of diseases.
  3. A PET study on regional cerebral metabolic rate of glucose in first-episode patients with major depressive disorders using ROI analysis
  4. Quantification of Regional Cerebral Metabolic Rate(CMR) of Oxygen With PET
  5. Sevoflurane could provide fast induction and revival due to its low blood gas partition coefficient and lower the cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen, so it is an ideal drug for neurosurgery.
